What exactly is sourdough bread?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sourdough bread has the same ingredients as regular bread, only there is one important difference: instead of yeast, in this case good bacteria in the sourdough starter ensure that the bread rises well. This not only gives sourdough a special flavour, but also makes the bread easier to digest. Moreover, sourdough bread keeps longer than bread baked with yeast. And you can easily and cheaply make it yourself with just a few ingredients. So plenty of reasons to get started and bake your own sourdough bread.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Spelt sourdough bread: what exactly is spelt?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Spelt, also known as \u2018Triticum spelta\u2019, is one of the oldest cereals we know. This ancient grain has been cultivated for more than nine thousand years and used to be widely eaten in Europe, especially by the ancient Greeks and Romans. Spelt is a cereal closely related to wheat, yet slightly different. It has a firm outer husk that provides protection against diseases and pests, making it a popular choice for organic farming. It has a nutty flavour and slightly sweet undertones, making it a favourite in many cuisines, especially in breads, pastas and cakes. Moreover, spelt is rich in nutrients such as fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy choice for people looking for a nutritious alternative to common wheat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
